Albert Einstein - Wikipedia

Einstein's work is also known for its influence on the philosophy of science.[4][5] He developed the general theory of relativity, one of the two pillars of modern physics (alongside quantum mechanics).[3][6]:274 Einstein is best known in popular culture for his mass–energy equivalence formula E = mc2 (which has been dubbed "the world's most famous equation").[7] He received the 1921 Nobel Prize in Physics for his "services to theoretical physics", in particular his discovery of the law of the photoelectric effect, a pivotal step in the evolution of quantum theory.[8] Near the beginning of his career, Einstein thought that Newtonian mechanics was no longer enough to reconcile the laws of classical mechanics with the laws of the electromagnetic field.

This led to the development of his special theory of relativity. Life. Albert Einstein. Einstein's Big Idea. Einstein's Big Idea PBS Airdate: October 11, 2005 NARRATOR: When we think of E = mc2 we have this vision of Einstein as an old wrinkly man with white hair.
